I find it contradictory to cite the brand as bearing some responsibility and then cite the sense of entitlement present in the population. Are you saying brands / companies shouldn't design or manufacture products people find desirable unless everyone can afford them because people justifiably have a sense of entitlement? I disagree the brand bears any responsibility for a kid that decided to rob something at gunpoint or the seller that decided to rip the kids arm off after the robbery. They are the only two people responsible for their respective actions.
